Nonlinear evolution of dark matter and dark energy in the Chaplygin-gas cosmology

The hypothesis that dark matter and dark energy are unified through the Chaplygin gas is reexamined. Using generalizations of the spherical model which incorporate effects of the acoustic horizon we show that an initially perturbative Chaplygin gas evolves into a mixed system containing cold dark matter-like gravitational condensate.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures, substantial revision, title changed, content changed, added references, to appear in JCA
